Guys, I am back and sorry but haven't been around in a while. This was always a great site for me and I always enjoyed it. In Sept of 2015 my Yamaha F250 had a major failure with only 120 hours on it. The factory Rep came to the dealer to inspect and they were unable to identify the cause of the failure. The engine gave off a loud backfire sound while in the slip and suddenly I had an oil slick. They ended up replacing the entire upper engine, everything except the lower unit. I didn't get it back until February 2016, and was then traveling for work and it remained in the garage all year. I am back in action and happy to be fishing again, from my own boat.
Now I have to run it like a new break in until I get some hours on it. Glad to be back on the water and on this site.
